BRIDOL is the British Sundial Society's Register of Fixed and Mass Dials, which gives detail and photographs of about 8000 fixed sundials and 3000 mass dials in the UK.

Some of these are in private gardens, but the majority are publicly available.

St Mary the Virgin Church. In apex of gable., Bishops Cannings

No furniture. Only the gnomon and its curved drip protected supporter really remains. However there is possibly a remnant of the black painted edge of the chapter ring on the West side of the dial. The orientation of the gnomon against the stones suggests the presumed (and guessed) declination.
